Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On December 23, 2025, Ramaco Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) announcing that the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) authorized a share repurchase program for up to $100 million of the Company’s Class A common stock over a period of 24 months. A copy of the Press Release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

None of the information furnished in this Item 7.01 or the accompanying Exhibit 99.1 will be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

On December 23, 2025, the Board authorized a share repurchase program for up to $100 million of the currently outstanding shares of the Company’s Class A common stock over a period of 24 months. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares through open market purchases, privately-negotiated transactions, block purchases or otherwise. The Board also authorized the Company to enter into written trading plans under Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act with a third-party broker to facilitate the repurchase of its Class A common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program.

 

The Company cannot predict when or if it will repurchase any shares of Class A common stock as such stock repurchase program will depend on a number of factors, including constraints specified in any written trading plans, price, general business and market conditions, and alternative investment opportunities. Information regarding share repurchases will be available in the Company’s periodic reports on Form 10-Q and 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as required by the applicable rules of the Exchange Act.

 

This Form 8-K and press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 contains forward-looking statements regarding future events and future results that are subject to the safe harbors created under the Securities Act and Exchange Act. All statements other than statements of historical facts included or referenced in this press release regarding the Company’s share repurchases, financial position, capital allocation, and industry conditions are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond the Company’s control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.
